Presenter

Dr Nick Brown is a Research Fellow at EPCC the University of Edinburgh with interests in HPC application development, novel heterogeneous architectures, data science, programming language design, and compilers. He has worked on a number of large scale parallel codes including developing MONC, an atmospheric model used by the UK climate and weather communities which involves novel in-situ data analytics. He is also interested in micro-core architectures, developing ePython, a very small memory footprint Python interpreter with parallel extensions, for many core, low memory chips. In addition to organising numerous BoFs at previous SC and ISC, he has chaired and organised the UrgentHPC workshop at SC19 and SC20, and will do so again at SC21. Nick is a course organizer on EPCC's MSc in HPC and data science courses, as well as supervising MSc and PhD students.
